Product description

The largest in the Gorilla Carts line of dump carts, this beast was built to handle whatever you can throw at it. The new frame design significantly reduces assembly time while offering improved maneuverability, increased ground clearance, and a tighter turn radius. Heavy-Duty 15 in. pneumatic tires keep this workhorse on the move, and the patented dump feature allows the bed to tilt for easy unloading while keeping the cart balanced to prevent tipping. With a hauling capacity of 1,500 lbs. and 10 cu. ft., the thick, rugged high-strength poly bed means you can haul more with each load and finish the job faster and more efficiently. The convertible 2-in-1 handle makes it simple to switch between pulling the cart by hand or towing behind a lawn tractor. This is the cart you need for the biggest and toughest jobs. The bed dimensions measure 49-inches by 33-inches by 12-inches, and the cart has an overall height of 47.6-inches and weighs 86-pounds. Gorilla Carts full line of products meets the needs of the light-duty homeowner as well as the commercial-duty professional user by offering a wide variety of carts in different sizes and weight capacities. The Gorilla Carts Extra Heavy-Duty Poly Dump Cart comes with a 1-year limited warranty.

It is a Monster Cart compared to the smaller one I bought some time ago. It was not easy to put together because the sides are tall and reaching inside was very difficult while holding a screwdriver inside and a nut on the outside, my arms are not long enough to do that easily. Holding my tongue just right and groaning a bit I got 'er done. Dropped one nut in the leaf covered gravel driveway, could not find it, went to my shed and found a bolt and nut but it was hex head and fit in the recess but hard to tighten it as a socket wouldn't fit in that recess and holding a screwdriver to lock the bolt head from turning inside that plastic recess wouldn't work too well. I kicked the ground in frustration and uncovered the nut I lost. I had already kicked that stuff around when I first lost it but didn't see it then. Saved!

I was relieved, as not a single nut, washer or bolt is given as a spare. I wish the whole thing used hex heads with recesses large enough diameter to also hold a socket so I could use ratchet to ratchet with extensions. They are far easier to work with than a screwdriver and adjustable wrench. I used a ratchet & socket where I could on the nuts and a right angled ratcheting screwdriver worked in a couple places on the bolt heads but it was too short for most. A list of the bolt sizes so I can find wrenches/sockets faster would be nice too, sheesh how hard could that be to mark each pack on the cardboard sheet, not just by the step number, but what size wrench/socket fits so you don't round them off using an adjustable wrench? Those things always slip but a socket or properly sized wrench in good condition, no problem.

That being said, I love this cart. After assembling the cart in the bed of my Ranger pickup, I lifted it down to the ground and it was hefty, I was red in the face afterwards, but I managed. This thing turns really tight so I can get its monster self in and out of tight places easily as long as the width is enough for it, it does not pass through narrow spaces with the wide spaced wheels if you have to turn the wheels to get around something in that narrow area. It rolls like a dream on grass, uneven grass filled ditches, gravel and hard surfaces, even easier than the already easy rolling 13" wheeled cart I had since this cart has some hefty 15" tires. It looks awesome with it's tall stance and wide spread tires and holds a whole lot of stuff. (wide tires on a muscle car look) I can put two trash cans in it, laying down sideways across the bed (30gal round cans) to take them to where I'm going to fill them and of course they'll fit standing up, they take up less room standing. Awesome! It's so nice to not have to bend so low to pick things up and it has a high enough surface to work on things inside it but I need to make a custom top to keep the rain out when I'd like to have it sitting with the bed locked in place and to use as a storage for tools with a top that is a work surface. I wish they made one to fit like a sturdy cover/work surface that won't leak.

I don't have room in my shed for this monster so I tilt the bed up until it touches the ground then cover the whole thing in an XLg barbecue grill cover and use the cover's plastic clips to hold it in place. That way it won't fill with water and push the cover inside the bed and it's not exposed to sunlight all day. Yep, it stinks, but so did the first one and I kept it in the shed from the first day. It didn't bother me as I have a 5' wide door open when I'm in there for plenty of air flow.

I've put it to use already and I am very pleased with the handling, performance, and the stares it got when pulling it around the yard made me giggle. They were not looking at me, I'm an ugly old hag, they were checking out the cart! I can't blame 'em, it isn't your ordinary lawn cart.

INCREDIBLE CART -PROS - Heavy duty, turns on a dime, rock solid bed, the dump feature works very well, will stand up to any project at a job site or task around the hose.GENERAL - I've been using it to haul many rolls of sod and fix compost with dirt. It can hold far more than I have the strength to pull. Mixing 80lbs of compost with 80lbs of dirt is more than I can lift the body to dump. Would work well with a garden tractor.CONS - It could use a braking capability. If you have it heavily loaded and you're working on the side of a hill, it's impossible to keep it from rolling without positioning it across the hill.It weighs 86 pounds and is very difficult to turn over.It would take 2 people to lift it into a pickup truck to transfer it to another job site.

This cart is amazing in its design and ability to function at a very high level on average usage. What it lacks is a break or someway to control it on descents down an incline with even a partial load. On level ground this unit turns sharply, dumps very easily, and can take a little abuse with no problem. We use it to haul walnuts, wood chips, firewood, dirt, and my shooting equipment when I go to the range. We have built side racks to accommodate larger wood chip loads and the stake pockets make this easy. The only complaint I can find is the lack of a braking system. It is very easy to assemble, heavily built to withstand a good size load, and easy to pull by hand if need be. I love this cart and would not hesitate to recommend it to any of my friends. I have used many carts in the past and nothing comes close to this for the money.

Awesome yard workhorse. Easy and fast assembly. Tires stink but it is kept in the shed so that doesn't matter too much to me. It is large capacity and holds tons of yard waste and materials. This thing has been very useful for our yard. It might have been cool to have breaks on it because our yard has many slopes. Overall very good product, satisfied customer.

Best cart I've ever owned. The wheels have almost no resistance, so it's easy to pull even when going uphill with a heavy load. It is incredibly well made with nothing flimsy about it. The front wheels turn sharply underneath the cart, so the turning radius is extremely tight. It backs up easily and steers with easy stability. The wheels are big with nice ground clearance, so it can be pulled out into the pasture without being bogged down with grass and debris. There's only two negative things I can say about this product. First, it moves so easily that it really needs a brake. I try to keep it in place by turning the wheels sharply, but on the slight incline of my driveway it still moves around. I turned my back on it the other day and it almost hit my car the other day. Now I keep a brick in it to put under a wheel when I want to park it. Second, I tend to let it stand with the handle in the "up" position, as seen in one of the pictures. When it is headed downhill and I've forgotten to block the tire with the brick, the cart can start to move and the handle can sometimes flop forward onto the ground. That doesn't damage the handle, but if it were to hit a pet or child it could cause some damage. I'm going to put a hook in the front of the cart to keep the handle from dropping down while parked. So maybe I should only give this 4 stars, but despite those two issues I love this cart enough to upgrade it to full endorsement.

This cart is a monster -- it is huge in size and thus capable of doing any work for which you have need -- extremely well-built -- extremely maneuverable, rolls easily -- build instructions on 1-pg with hardware attached to a correspondingly numbered sheet making for snap installation (may require a second set of hands for initial installation of bolts/nuts.).
